How many Easter/spring words can you think of?I like to teach dictionary skills with this activity. The children have lots of ideas in their mother tongue but don't nececcarily know the English. equivalent. My favourite online dictionary is www.pons.deI let the children work in teams with iPads or PCs and see how many words they can find in a given time.Why not give points too! If no else has the word, you get 2 points, if someone else has it, then you get just one.You can also use the Brown Owl busy Easter scene to give them some ideas.Have fun learning English with Brown Owl!

The wordmats can be used in lots of different ways:1) I spy with my little eye … an Easter basket! (children point at the Easter basket or place their rubber on it, for example).  This can also be done as pairwork.2) colour dictation - I spy with my little eye … purple and pink Easter eggs!3) bingo - each child chooses three pictures and places something on them, e.g. counters/glass nuggets.  The teacher draws the picture cards at random and once their three have been called, the children shout 'Bingo!'.This can also be played in groups with a bingo master for each group.4) hide the wordcards / flashcards around the room and the children label the pictures themselves = copy-writingDifferentiation: they use a pencil to write the words how they think they are spelt and then find the word cards in the room to check their work.Have fun learning English with Brown Owl!
